Buddy Boeheim: Thunder G-League

This will still be funny in 2000 years, yet infuriating when Chris Bell does it.
 
Buddy started again tonight and played 22 mins scoring 10 pts making 3/7 3s.
Wonder what has happened to his free throw shooting though? He’s only 50% from there but has improved his 3 point shooting to .409 this summer to date. He’s 6th in scoring boosted by his 2 starts while playing only 11th in minutes/game.

 
Seems like this move was just done to move in a body to camp and remove a body -- both players still will end up in the G-League. But good for BB that he is at least selected for a training camp look, so they at least think he has potential as a fill in later on.

I found this interesting at the end of the article... gives us some clarity on the Exhibit 10 comp in general, and also what happened with Quincy Guerrier who was signed to Exhibit 10 then waived by the Raptors immediately -- looks like both are now in line for bonuses up to $77,500 if they last 60 days in the G-League. Given the paltry G-League salaries its a nice little bump for them - makes total comp over $100K which is not a bad living for a mid 20's player. Not NIL money though -- which probably shows why so many more just outside / fringe NBA players are sticking along longer.

"The Oklahoma City Blue – the Thunder’s G League affiliate – acquired Boeheim’s returning rights in a trade with the Cruise this offseason, so it appears the plan is to waive him before the NBA season begins and have him report to the Blue. That also figures to be the next step for Reese. Both players will earn Exhibit 10 bonuses worth up to $77.5K if they spend at least 60 days with OKC’s NBAGL team."
